Ram Ladoo Recipe is a famous North Indian street food served with radish (मूली) salad and chutney. Despite the name, Ram Ladoo is not a sweet. These tangy and savory Indian lentil dumplings are made with moong dal, chana dal, and green coriander (हरा धनिया) batter, then deep-fried until golden.

I love having Ram Ladoo with fresh chutney. You can also try my Green Pudina Chutney Recipe with them.

Notes

Don’t grind all lentils in one batch, make it slowly.
Also if required add very little water while making lentils paste in a mixer, but make sure that water is chill.
To test that air is fully incorporated in the lentils batter take a small amount of batter and drop it into cold water. If it’s floating that means it has incorporated the air, if it drowns that means you have to continue beating.
You can also top up your Ladoo with Imli Ki Chutney.
